Last night, we were drinking the seasonal transition with Akabu Hisui in one hand, a summer namazake that is light and crisp with a little muscat grape, and Akabu Kohaku in the other hand, a hiyaoroshi with softer, banana, melon notes and more balanced umami. A big thank you to 🌸🌻yishi li 李(白的)一(首)诗🌺🌼 for leading the way 🍂
Hiyaoroshi is sake that has been pasteurized once at the end of the brewing season and then matured over the summer before being shared in the autumn months.
Hiyaoroshi’s summer maturing process allows flavors to get to know each other, resulting in a bottle with more umami, and a balanced, softer than your average namazake flavor.
We have lots of hiyaoroshi on the menu right now 🍂 stop by to sip Fall sake with us 🍶✨
